Quell is the database that does all the stuff here. It's based on Turbopower's Flashfiler and Tamarack's Rubicon. Both were heavily extended to create a real fast Client/Server fulltext database.
Quell was designed to run on cheap/old machines. That's why searches in >100Mbyte databases guarantee a response time of 0.1 seconds for fulltext-search on a P100 with 128Mbyte (of course this does not include Result-Page-Construction, Hit-Highlighting, ...). In fact these pages are hosted on a P100 with 96MB, and we think it is fast enough.
Some features of Quell:
* Client/Server database running with TCP/IP, IPX and Netbios
protocol
* can show and index more than 220
fileformats without external viewers/editors
* Filters for almost all Text databases (Datastar, FizTechnik, Dialog, ...)
* customizable Filters for reading (un-)structured Files
* Inter-/Intranet interface via (WIN)CGI or Active Server Pages;
complete Search and Edit scripts are shipped
* complete OLE Automation Server;
write your Scripts, Macros or User Interface by using the QuellDatabase OLE Object
(optional)
* write your own Quell-Macros with completely integrated VBScript (e.g. read mails from MSOutlook)
* integrated Internat-Crawler to index you favorite Internet-Pages
* supervise and index all known files on your harddisk or in certain directories
automatically
Some Internet demos:
* Newswatch: a
daily new Austrian newspaper search-engine; demonstrates CGI Interface and Internet
Crawler: at 3:00 am all daily Austrian newspapers are crawled and indexed.
* 100 Meisterwerke: holds
100 paintings with descriptions, painters, thumbnails, ...; demonstrates how easy it is to
use Quell as an Image gallery
* Wiener Trabrennverein:
another sample for an Image gallery
* Delphi-Archives:
shows how to make different fileformats searchable via Internet
